Resident Evil 4

10/10

Resident Evil 4 translates a game already revered into an absolute masterpiece. The tension is heightened and the combat is stronger than ever, all while still maintaining the corny dialogue and humour that the original game was known for. While there are a few minor aspects missing, Resident Evil 4 is a strong example of what any remake should be and is well worth your time.

Resident Evil 4 reimagines and reanimates the 2005 classic with exceptional gameplay updates and lifelike visuals. The thrilling narrative and meticulously crafted environment have made RE4 a game I just can’t stop playing. With such high attention to detail, Capcom has crafted a prodigious experience so immersive that it stands gallantly as one of the greatest video game experiences offered in the industry today.

While the removal of one boss in particular and an only okay performance of one character are notable missteps for a remake, the game otherwise feels like a solid iteration of the original. For RE4 newcomers, it’s a fun game that turns up the action of the Resident Evil 2 remake and has a similar inventory to Resident Evil Village. To those that played the original in 2005 however, it’s a nostalgic love letter that you can tell was made with care, and respect to the original.

Back in 2008, Capcom gave us a game that redefined the survival horror genre. Who knew it could continue to refine itself nearly two decades later.

“Resident Evil 4 finally gets the remake it deserves: a total reimagining that's every bit as bold and unpredictable as the original.”

One of the most important games in the industry returns once again. The Resident Evil 4 remake takes us back to old garbage, but does it in such a fresh and fantastic way that no one should blame it.

Taking us back through the history of one of the greatest horror gaming franchises of all time, Capcom has been absolutely killing it with their remakes of Resident Evil. Whether it’s the monumental perspective shift of Resident Evil 2 or the updated look and feel of Resident Evil 3.

Still, I absolutely adore this game. Almost everything new felt fresh and good without straying too far from familiarity. Both games have unique identities and almost need to be treated as such. The remake doesn’t try to replace the original and its perfected level design, but instead, it offers players more freedom and spectacle. I would say almost any other game this good would surpass the original but Resident Evil 4 isn’t just any game. But in overall quality, Resident Evil 4 Remake could still be considered the best remake of all time and it certainly makes as a strong contender for game ...
